NUFC have issued preliminary details for the upcoming Champions
League visit online
here
2025/26:
Brighton (a)

Newcastle return to Premier League action on Saturday, when they head to the Amex Stadium - a venue
where they are still to be victorious in the top flight.
Eight previous Premier League visits have ended in five draws and
three home wins.
The Magpies are winless against the Seagulls in the most recent five
league and cup meetings at home and away.
It's an old-fashioned 3pm start, with no live UK TV.
Match ticket holders travel free on trains and buses from 11.30am
until 8.30pm in an area bordered by Worthing, Brighton, Haywards
Heath, Seaford and Eastbourne.

Team:
Speaking to the media on Friday, Eddie Howe confirmed that Jacob Ramsey
would return to the squad.
There was no mention of the ailment that saw Lewis Miley withdraw
from the England U21 squad, while there were slight concerns over
Joelinton and Will Osula.
Lewis Hall, Tino Livramento and Yoane Wissa remain out, with Wissa
and Hall both pencilled in for a return before the November
international break. Livramento's comeback is still anticipated to
be in December.
Fabian Schar is one game away from a double century of
Premier League appearances, while Joelinton has made 199 starts in
all competitions for United to date. Dan Burn is on 149
league and cup starts for the club.

BHAFC: Solly March, Adam Webster,
Brajan Grud and Jack Hinshelwood remain out but Joel Veltman and Kaoru Mitoma both should
return to the squad following injury.
Diego Gomez is doubtful after suffering a knock while on
international duty.
Matt O'Riley is on loan at Marseille while Igor Julio has made a
temporary switch to West Ham.
Fabian Hurzeler's side are unbeaten on home turf so far this season,
drawing with Fulham (1-1) and Spurs (2-2) and defeating Manchester
City (2-1). Adding in last season, Albion haven't lost at the Amex
in seven PL outings.
SJP old boy James Milner made his 643rd Premier League appearance in
Brighton's last PL fixture at Wolves. That leaves the 39 year-old
ten behind record holder Gareth Barry, who played in 653 PL matches.
As a measure of his longevity, Milner played his very first PL game
in the colours of Leeds United in November 2002, two days before
current Magpie Tino Livramento was born.
Of a rather different vintage is ex-Magpie Yankuba Minteh, who
scored in both of his appearances against United last season - once
in the PL and once in the FA Cup.
Despite online claims about his fitness, the 21 year-old featured
twice for Gambia during the international break.
Referee:
Craig Pawson - second appointment this season involving Newcastle
after the 0-0 draw at Aston Villa.
The South Yorkshire whistler took charge of last season's visit to
Brighton, awarding United no less than three spot kicks, only one of
which survived VAR scrutiny.

Update :
He's a 'keeper
Sky Sports reported on Friday that Newcastle
goalkeeper Nick Pope had exercised the option in his contract for a
further 12 months, keeping him at Gallowgate until 2027.
The 33 year-old has made 104 league and cup appearances since arriving from
Burnley ahead of the 2022/23 season, keeping five clean sheets in the
opening seven games of the current Premier League campaign.
Premier League:
TV times - derby day
Update: the Premier League blamed
"complexities" for their failure to announce further fixture changes and
say only that those games will be confirmed "as soon as possible."
Earlier: Wednesday saw the Premier League announce
some changes to the December fixture list, with three Newcastle games
rescheduled for TV as follows:
Tue 02.12.2025 Spurs (h) 8.15pm Sky
Sat 06.12.2025 Burnley (h) 3pm (no live TV)
Sun 14.12.2025 mackems (a) 2pm Sky
Sat 20.12.2025 Chelsea (h) 12.30pm TNT
Although fixtures up to the end of January were due on Wednesday, only those
up to Mon 22.12.2025 appeared. There's no word on when the remainder will be
released, leaving seven Newcastle games still subject to change:
Sat 27.12.2025 tbc Manchester United (a)
Tue 30.12.2025 tbc Burnley (a)
Sat 03.01.2026 tbc Crystal Palace (h)
Wed 07.01.2026 tbc Leeds United (h)
Sat 17.01.2026 tbc Wolves (a)
Sat 24.01.2026 tbc Aston Villa (h)*
Sat 31.01.2026 tbc Liverpool (a)
The initial fixture release in June didn't list any games on either December 26th
or January 1st, but the PL's only "blackout" days are December 24th
and 25th.
On that basis, some PL fixtures are liable to be played on both Boxing Day
and New Years Day.
* Aston Villa's visit to SJP will move from Sat 24.01.2026 due to
their Europa League tie on Thu 22.01.2026.

Match action
Match report
PS: The Magpies are still in with a chance of finishing second and
qualifying for the knockout stage.
However, Huddersfield Town and Mansfield Town meet in their final
game on November 4th - a week before the Harrogate versus Newcastle
fixture. Depending on the outcome of that, our game could be
meaningless.
Internationals:
Wissa complication
Following the final round of World Cup qualifiers involving
African nations this week, the four sides contesting the play-off
tournament next month are now confirmed - and one of them is DR
Congo.
Assuming he's fit by then, Newcastle's Yoane Wissa would be in
contention for selection when The Leopards travel to Morocco during
the November international break.
Semi-finals are set for November 13th when DR Congo play Cameroon,
with the winners of that facing either Gabon or Nigeria three days
later.
The winner of that then qualify for a further inter-confederation
qualification tournament involving six teams in USA/Mexico during
next March's international break.
NB: this is all over and above DR Congo's participation in the
African Cup of Nations Final tournament, staged between December
21st and January 18th in Morocco.
Theoretically, players can be called up 14 days in advance, but it's
anticipated this will be delayed until after Premier League fixtures
on and around December 13th.
Whether that could be stretched further to include the Carabao Cup
ties the following midweek remains to seen.
Internationals:
Goalden
Gordon
Current Magpies receiving country calls:
Anthony Gordon, Dan Burn (England):
Tue 14.10.2025 Latvia (a) won 5-0 WCQ
Three points in Riga were enough to secure a place at the World Cup
Finals for Thomas Tuchel's England side.
Anthony Gordon retained his place in the side and netted a solo
opener, cutting in from the left side of the area before steering a
low right footer into the far corner of the net.
Gordon was withdrawn on 71 minutes when the score was 4-0, club
colleague Dan Burn introduced at that point.
Thu 09.10.2025 Wales (h) won 3-0 FR
A 90 minute shift for Gordon at Wembley, beginning on the left flank and
finishing up in a more central position. Fellow Magpie Burn remained
unused on the
bench, available to club and country despite scans confirming a
broken hand.
Sandro Tonali (Italy):
Tue 14.10.2025 Israel (h) won 3-0 WCQ
Another long shift for Sandro as Israel were defeated in Udine,
replaced in second half added time after collecting a yellow card.
Sat 11.10.2025 Estonia (a) won 3-1 WCQ
Victory for the Azzurri in Tallinn, with the Newcastle midfielder
completing the entire game.
Bruno Guimaraes/Joelinton (Brazil):
Tue 14.10.2025 Japan (a) lost 2-3 FR
Another start for Bruno and a precise through ball to register an
assist for his side's opening goal.
Joelinton was
named on the bench in Tokyo, replacing his club colleague in the
57th minute with Brazil leading 2-1.
However the hosts hit back to preserve their home record, Joelinton
squandering the chance to make it 3-3 in the closing seconds of
normal time.
Fri 10.10.2025 South Korea (a) won 5-0 FR
A 79 minute shift in Seoul for Bruno, with his
incisive through ball setting up the opening goal. Club colleague
Joelinton was an unused substitute.
Leo Shahar (England U19s):
Tue 14.10.2025 Wales (n) won 7-0 FR
An emphatic victory in La Quinta, with full back Leo on the field
for the first 67 minutes and withdrawn with his side leading 4-0.
Sat 11.10.2025 Belgium (n) won 4-1 FR
The Newcastle full back was introduced in the 67th minute of
Saturday's victory in Marbella with the scoring complete.
Nick Woltemade (Germany):
Mon 13.10.2025 Northern Ireland (a) won 1-0 WCQ
A first international goal for the Newcastle striker gave his side
victory in Belfast, converting a 31st minute corner kick from close
range with his head and/or arm.
In doing so, Woltemade emulated fellow countryman Didi Hamann, whose
only strike for Germany while a Magpie also came at Windsor Park
back in 1999.
Big Nick was replaced in second half added time.
Fri 10.10.2025 Luxembourg (h) won 4-0 WCQ
A starting spot for the striker in Sinsheim but no maiden
international goal in his 61 minutes of action.
Anthony Elanga (Sweden):
Mon 13.10.2025 Kosovo (h) lost 0-1 WCQ
Another disastrous night for the Swedes, whose chances of World Cup
Final qualification are now almost over, following defeat in Gothenburg.
Elanga was introduced as a half time substitute while former Magpie Jon Dahl Tomasson
was relieved of his position as Sweden coach hours after the loss.
Fri 10.10.2025 Switzerland (h) lost 0-2 WCQ
More woe for Sweden in Stockholm, with Elanga
remaining unused on the bench.
Rory Finneran (Ireland U18s):
Mon 13.10.2025 Switzerland (n) drew 1-1 FR
Rory captained his side to a draw in Pinatar as Ireland concluded
their preparations for next month's U17 World Cup Final tournament
in Qatar.
Sat 11.10.2025 Poland (n) lost 0-2 FR
Defeat in Pinatar for the Irish youngsters with the United
midfielder captaining the side and completing 90 minutes. Poor
weather saw the game held back from the Friday.
Odysseas Vlachodimos (Greece):
Sun 12.10.2025 Denmark (a) lost 1-3 WCQ
Defeat for the Greeks in Copenhagen with Vlachodimos returning to
the starting line-up.
Thu 09.10.2025 Scotland (a) lost 1-3 Hampden WCQ
The goalkeeper was an unused substitute.
Alex Murphy (Ireland U21s):
Fri 10.10.2025 Slovakia (h) drew 2-2 ECQ
The United defender wasn't called into action in Cork.
Giveaway:
Scarf
compo winner

Following the success of matching bucket
and bobble hats, a Lee scarf has been added to the range of
products on offer from Tyneside's own Football Bobbles.
Inspired by United's distinctive 1997/98 season change kit
and echoing the current change ensemble, these are available online
here
now.
(Anyone purchasing Lee scarves qualifies for reduced prices on Ferdinand scarves and Tino bobble hats - see link
above for further details).
We had a Lee scarf to give away and asked what was distinctive about Rob
Lee's UEFA Cup hat-trick at Royal Antwerp back in 1994.
Most folks knew that all three goals were headers and the winning
entry came from Paul Johnson (the Bristol one).
Book:
Belfast boy
Out now from Pitch
Publishing is the definitive biography of United icon, Bill
McCracken, penned by renowned Magpies club historian Paul Joannou.

The Belfast-born defender served Newcastle for 15 seasons,
winning three titles and one FA Cup while generating headlines
worldwide for his revolutionary offside tactic.
Bill's life in football then extended for over half a century in
managerial and scouting roles, included that of transfer advisor to
Magpies supremo Stan Seymour in the 1950s.

United's third home game in a third
different competition during a nine day period sees them receive Spurs
in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday October 29th.
It's an 8pm kick-off, live on ITV1 and Sky Sports
and if the scores are level after 90 minutes, the tie will be
settled by a penalty shootout.
The winners will take their place in the quarter final draw, which
will be staged
after the full time whistle.
While Newcastle enjoy home comforts for the third successive
game, the visitors will complete a trio of away fixtures:
trekking to Monaco in the Champions League, Everton in the Premier League and
Newcastle.
Spurs will be back by 4,900 fans - the same away allocation that
Bradford City received in the last round. On that basis expect
temporary post-match closures of the walking route from the Leazes
End to Barrack Road for home fans as was the case against the
Bantams (confirmation awaited).

paired in this competition, United winning the 1975/76 semi-final

3-1 on Tyneside in the second leg.

ST holders have 24
hours to apply, 24 hours to determine success, 48 hours to
buy.
Success is based on the loyalty point total calculated from applications
received. Any applications from ST holders with less points are entered into a
ballot, which will have taken place before tickets go on sale.
The purchase window is divided into two sections determined by a loyalty
point division that alters for each game - those successful applicants above
that point division get a couple of hours head start.
Note that emails from NUFC confirming success may arrive after the purchase
window opens - if you think you qualify because of your points total, just log
on and complete your purchase regardless.
Tickets not bought by successful applicants within 48 hours are offered
to unsuccessful applicants with the next highest loyalty points total. NUFC contact them directly.
Friends and family groups remain, travel groups and away season tickets are
gone.
2025/26 PL away tickets remain at £30.

On This Day in History |
17th October |
Born Or Died:
1939 John Russell Bell
born, Evenwood, Durham. (1956-62)
 Left
half who was rejected by Burnley as a youngster before
joining Newcastle from Evenwood Town in October 1956. Jackie
then marked his senior debut away to Luton Town in
November 1957 with a goal as United ran out 3-0
winners.
Becoming a regular starter, Jackie was unable to
prevent United dropping out of Division One in 1961
and after one failed attempt at promotion, he fell
from favour when Joe Harvey took control at SJP.
Sold to Norwich City in 1962 for £10K, the fee was
later reduced by FA decree when Bell's diabetes was
confirmed. Moving on to Colchester United, Jackie
later turned out for Gainford Town in his native
Durham and was a regular at Barnard Castle Golf Club, winning several trophies.
He died in 1991, shortly after a Magpies
XI had visited Evenwood to provide the opposition in a benefit match for
him.
 1940 Jim Smith born, Sheffield.
(Manager 1988-91)
 With
almost 20 years of managerial nous gained at Boston
United, Colchester United, Blackburn Rovers, Oxford
United and QPR, "The Bald Eagle" swooped
into SJP during the dark days of December 1988.
And although he was able to inspire his new side to a
2-1 home win over Wimbledon, the struggle to avoid
relegation from the top flight was ultimately to be a
fruitless one.
Smith then set about fashioning a side to gain
promotion at the first attempt, pairing strikers Mick
Quinn and Mark McGhee to good effect but seeing his
side falter in the closing weeks of the season.
A playoff semi-final defeat by the mackems
in May 1990 was a blow from which Smith never
recovered and with the club imploding off the field
with a failed
share issue leading to boardroom unrest, he quit in
March 1991.
At the time Smith commented that had he regretted ever
taking the job after "the two years of
heartache" that he'd faced at SJP.
Popping up soon after on the backroom staff at the
smoggies, Jim became Pompey boss ahead of the 1991/92
season and sat in the away dugout at SJP the following
April as David Kelly's goal gave us a precious win.
Leaving Fratton Park in February 1995, Smith
reappeared three months later in charge of Derby County,
taking charge of the Rams for six and a half
years.
A series of assistant manager posts at
Coventry City, Pompey and Southampton then followed,
the latter two in the company of Harry Redknapp.
2006 brought a return to former club Oxford United,
with a stint in charge leading on to a director's
position and a brief period of caretaker management
before his eventual departure from the Kassam Stadium
in 2009.
Jim's death in December 2019 prompted glowing tributes
from
players and colleagues at his many former clubs.
Newcastle's FA Cup meeting with Oxford the following
month then saw U's fans unveil a banner in Smith's
honour during the replay at the Kassam Stadium.
1943 Death of George Thompson, 65.
(1903-05)

1989 Dwight Gayle born, Walthamstow, London
(2016-22)
Newcastle's second capture ahead of the 2016/17 season, striker Gayle arrived from
Crystal Palace just as Andros Townsend completed a
move to the Eagles - although the deals were separate.
Gayle left
Selhurst Park after three seasons that brought him 26
goals in 74 senior appearances, including just 34
starts.
Two of those 26 goals came against United: in the
opening seconds of a 3-3 draw at SJP in August 2014
and a successful penalty during a League Cup tie a
month later.
Rejected by Arsenal as a youngster, Dwight's career
restarted at Essex Senior League side Stansted in
2009.
Signing for Dagenham & Redbridge in 2011, Gayle
was then loaned to out Bishop's Stortford before being
blooded in League Two at the start of the 2012/13
season.
A move to Peterborough United saw him net 13 times in
28 Championship during the 2012/13 season, form that persuaded Palace to pay £6m for him that summer.
A first sight of Dwight in Toon colours came as a half
time replacement against Bohemian in Dublin and he got
off the mark after just six minutes - having already
struck the woodwork at Dalymount Park.
Marking his home debut with a goal in a pre-season win over Vitesse Arnhem, Gayle
netted against Huddersfield Town a fortnight later -
although the Terriers claimed the points with a 2-1
success.
Notching a hat-trick in a 4-3 home win over Norwich in
September 2016, Gayle turned 27 a month later with
nine goals to his name - the Championship's top
scorer.
He finished the promotion season with 23
league goals from 32 appearances, hamstring injuries
meaning he missed 14 games that should have seen him
finish as the Championship's top scorer.
Amid speculation that he'd leave the club, Gayle
remained at Gallowgate and scored six Premier League
goals in 23 starts and 12 further appearances as a
substitute.
However, a return to the Championship came in
August 2018, loaned to relegated side
West Bromwich Albion as Baggies striker Salomon Rondon
made a temporary switch in the opposite direction.
Gayle finished with 23 goals and helping Albion to
the play-off semi-finals where they lost out to
Aston Villa. He scored in the first leg but was sent
off and missed the second game.
Gayle returned to Tyneside but fitness issues kept
him out of pre-season and he only featured sporadically until COVID.
Four goals in nine games followed the 2020/21 season
resumption, but further fitness issues then sidelined
him again.
A surprise contract extension in July 2021 suggested
Dwight would feature more regularly, but he remained
on the bench.
A late winner against West Bromwich Albion in December
2020 proved to be his last Newcastle goal; his final
appearance against Arsenal at home in May
2022.
A free transfer switch to Championship side Stoke City
saw Dwight score three
times in 50
games before his contract was terminated in February
2024.
Dwight then
joined League One Derby County until the end of the
season, six appearances bringing three goals and the feat of scoring
in all four of the top tiers of English football.
Attending a PFA summer training camp for free agents
with fellow ex-Magpie Ciaran Clark, a brief trial with
Stockport County failed to harvest a permanent
contract.
However an unexpected new club would appear, Gayle
agreeing a 12 month deal with Hibernian in September 2024.
Debuting in the SPL from the bench in a 0-1 loss to
Rangers at Ibrox, a goal in the Edinburgh derby was
the pick of his six for the Easter Road club.
Helping Hibs qualify for Europe, Dwight
retired at the end of the season and took up a new
role with the Unique Sports Group, who had
represented him as a player.
PS: Gayle's first birthday as a Magpie in 2016 came as
something of a surprise, with a general acceptance
until that point that he was born on October 20th -
the date that appeared in press releases and stats
sites.

1991
Conor Newton born, Whickham.
(2007-14)
 Right-sided
midfielder who first linked up United's Academy at the
age of nine, debuting for the U18s in April 2008.
A reserve team bow then came in September of that year at right back in
a 2-1 home win over Blackburn Rovers.
Appearing regularly at reserve level by the 2010/11
season, Conor was sidelined through injury at the tail end
of that campaign and took almost two years to
re-establish himself for the second string.
Joining
SPL side St. Mirren on loan along with
Paul Dummett in January 2013, Conor scored in a 3-2
League Cup Final win over Hearts at
Hampden Park within two months.
Appearing for Newcastle along with Dummett in a
pre-season game at St. Mirren, Conor then agreed a
further loan spell that kept him in Paisley until
January 2014.
Released by United that summer, Newton rejected Birmingham City, Millwall
and Wolves for Rotherham United - a decision that paid off just days later, as the Millers triumphed in the
League One play-off final at Wembley.
Within a year though he'd joined Cambridge United on a
two year deal and moved on to Hartlepool United in
2017.
After two years at Victoria Park, Conor joined Whickham in
June 2019, later signing for South Shields until announcing
his retirement in 2023.
Conor then worked as a personal trainer and co-owned a
gym in Gateshead.
1991 Danny Williams born, Worksop.
(2007-10)
 Attacking
midfielder whose family relocated to Tyneside and was
promoted to the U18 side in October 2007 after a
prolific run of goalscoring at U16 level.
What proved to be Danny's sole reserve team outing
came at Whitley Park against the smoggies in February
2009, coach Alan Thompson putting him on for the final
half hour of a 3-2 victory for the Magpies.
Making his final Academy appearance for United in late
2009, Danny was released by the club shortly
afterwards.

Newcastle then ended Villa's 100% home record when Bobby
Mitchell played in Reg Davies, who successfully lobbed
Parsons.

heavy defeat at Firhill.

Having memorably won 5-4 at Craven Cottage in 1956,
United's next visit there was goal-laden but not in their
favour on this occasion.
On a day when the visiting defence was all at sea for a large part of the game, there was a debut for George Luke, at outside left.

United's seven match unbeaten league
run came to an end thanks to some mid game defensive madness, undermining what
had been an excellent attacking display.
Among the Molineux crowd was England manager, Alf Ramsey.

The first unaccompanied away game for one of
us ended in defeat after Trevor Aylott's first half goal.
Mick McCarthy's throw-in ended up with Ronnie Glavin and
although his effort rebounded off Kevin Carr's post,
Aylott was well placed to convert the rebound.

Mirandinha had the ball in the visitors net inside 15
seconds - but play was brought back for an
earlier foul, much to his disgust.
Ian Snodin gave
Everton the lead but after the dismissal of Adrian Heath,
United really should have taken all three points.

1988 Arthur Cox
turned down the Newcastle Manager's position recently vacated
by Willie McFaul, preferring to stay at Derby County
rather than have a second stint at SJP.
Cox would later return to United as part of Kevin Keegan's
backroom staff in both 1993 and 2008.

An unhappy 58th birthday for ex-Toon boss Jim Smith,
as his Rams side were twice undone by Solano in the
opening stages - Paul Dalglish also hitting the
woodwork.
Solano missed three good
chances himself though and when Deon Burton bundled the
ball home off via future Derby defender Andy Griffin,
the final stages of the game were rather less
comfortable than desired.

2000 A wet night in Widnes and a reserve game notable for
a trio of penalties.
Everton ran out 3-1 winners with Phil Jevons and Danny
Cadamarteri beating John Karelse from the spot, with Stephen Glass replying
for United past Steve Simonsen.

United's unbeaten run was extended to seven games, but the chance to move
up into fourth was missed.
A dominant first half brought just one
goal from a Craig Bellamy header, Lee Bowyer having had an earlier effort
disallowed.
Defensive frailties
again proved our undoing: Andy O'Brien's hesitance letting Kevin
Lisbie in - only for Stephen Carr to nip in and hit it goalward back
to O'Brien, who was unable to prevent the ball crossing the line.

2007 Magpies duo Michael Owen and Alan
Smith were in Russia as England contrived to lose a Euro 2008
qualifier 2-1 at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow.
Owen made his 87th senior appearance, Smith
failed to make the bench and future Magpie Sol Campbell collected his 71st
cap.
2007 A forgettable night at Dublin's Croke Park for Shay
Given and Ireland, with only a late goal giving them a point in a
1-1 draw with Cyprus in a Euro qualifier.
2007 David Rozehnal was part of the Czech Republic defence that kept a
clean sheet in Munich, registering an emphatic 3-0 victory in a Euro qualifier.

United followed up a pair of draws with a loss at the City Ground
that unseated them off the top of the table.
Injury meant that future Magpie James Perch didn't feature for the home side, while
ex Tricky Tree Marlon Harewood appeared for the visitors but contributed
little as wee Billy Davies savoured another success against us.

2011 Derby County boss Nigel Clough failed in an attempt to take James Perch
on loan, the former Forest player remaining at SJP and forcing his way
back into first team contention with United later in the season.

A bizarre game at SJP ended with Newcastle on the
wrong end of a heaviest home defeat in over six years - although
the score was 1-1 four minutes from the end of normal time.
Karl Darlow saved a 58th minute penalty from Bruno Fernandes, by
which time the hosts could have been ahead again - Callum Wilson
denied moments earlier by
David de Gea.
However, a trio of emphatic late finishes made the scoreline
look more one-sided than it should have been, ending Newcastle's
four game unbeaten run in all competitions.

The post-Ashley era at
Newcastle began memorably, but mainly for the wrong reasons as the
new owners were left in no doubt about the size of their
task.
But for a few hours before kick-off and the first few minutes of the
match,
they got a glimpse of what could be possible.
A
dream start
saw
Callum Wilson net
within two minutes before reality soon intervened
with two quick Spurs strikes.
Things
deteriorated further as a fan suffered a medical emergency, the
visitors scored again and Jonjo Shelvey was red-carded.
The scoreline flattered Steve Bruce's side in his 1,000th
game as a manager but thankfully it was his last in charge at SJP.
